TI-83 Plus

The TI-83 Plus is a graphing calculator made by Texas Instruments. The TI-83 Plus is one of TI's most popular calculators. It uses a ZiLOG Z80 microprocessor running at 8MHz, a 96x64 monochrome LCD screen, and 4 AAA batteries as well as backup CR1616 or CR1920 battery. A link port is also built into the calculator.

Designed for high school, it contains all the features of a scientific calculator as well as function, parametric, polar, and sequential graphing capabilities, an environment for financial calculations, matrix operations, on-calc BASIC programming, and more. Symbolic manipulation (differentiation, algebra) is not built into the TI-83 Plus, but is available as an addon by Detached Solutions.

An active but small community of third-party developers exists and a large archive of various programs for it can be found at ticalc.org. The most prominent group of developers is known as Detached Solutions.

As of Spring 2004, the TI-83 Plus has been officially replaced by the TI-84 Plus, which offers a 15MHz processor and roughly three times the memory of the TI-83 Plus.
